Karl Lagerfeld stunned fashion lovers and fans worldwide
today, with his choice of stage decor to showcase Chanel Autumn/Winter collection
at the Paris fashion week. The gigantic several stories high rotating globe centerpiece, was indeed a stunner and attention grabber; which succeeded in gaining everyone’s
attention exclusively for the duration of his edgyilicious collection.

According to Elle UK, the globe was stamped with flags,
marking Chanel store locations. “It’s about the globalization of fashion,” said
Lagerfeld, who after all is never one for subtlety. “I wanted a global look,
not a French look.”

He told the AFP, the globe also symbolized Chanel’s history
and growth from a French house to a global company. “It’s very simple. One
hundred years ago Chanel opened its first boutique at Deauville, today 100
years after there are 300.”
